Dhaka: Dhaka University Central Students' Union (DUCSU) Vice President Abu Shadik today urged the people of Satkhira to stay with justice and truth. 'A certain group of people has made people's lives miserable through extortion and looting. In the past one and a half years after the July revolution, the group has been involved in extortion, tender manipulation and misappropriation of farmers' money.
